Rethinking Higher Eduction
The United States can stand proud of its accomplishment in significantly expanding the number and diversity of students who have sought and earned a college credential as a result of the Servicemen’s Readjustment Act of 1944 (the G.I. Bill) and the Higher Education Act of 1965. Although educational elites expressed fears that the G.I. Bill would turn college campuses into “educational hobo jungles,”1 more than a million World War II veterans received education benefits provided through the G.I. Bill, and many credit this expansion of postsecondary opportunity with creating the burgeoning middle class and prosperity of the post-World War II era. The Higher Education Act further expanded the diversity of students who could participate in postsecondary education by providing financial support to students who would otherwise not have had such an opportunity.
